A remote controlled power RGB LED mood light using PIC16F627A

A remote controlled power RGB LED mood light. Control the colour of a powerful LED light beam with a remote control, store the colours and recall them at will. With this thing I can control the colour of a bright light into many different colours using the three fundamentals colours : red green and blue.

DIY plug-in modules to make microcontroller breadboarding easier

Breadboards are a great tool for prototyping and testing electronics circuits. Here I am sharing with you some plug-in modules that I once made to make my breadboarding life easier. I have used these modules many times in the PIC experiments described in this blog. These modules serve very common functions that are required in

Mini F1 race track Grid Start Lights using PIC12F627A

(See big LED version here) My nephews got a Scalextric slot car racing circuit from Santa for Christmas. This was a blast-from-the-past for my brother and me and we were soon showing the kids how to race. However it quickly became apparent that “3-2-1-Go” wasn’t the best way to start a race so I put

Aurora 48 – 48 RGB LED Sequencer

Aurora 48 is a compact and thin profile full-color LED sequencer. It’s built entirely with surface mount components, so the profile is nice and clean. Step 1: Features Capable of individually controlling 48 Full color LEDs. Each LED can be faded in 7 bit per channel – 2,097,152 colors. Gamma corrected brightness curve for very smooth fades. Simple,

Contactless Digital Tachometer using PIC Microcontroller

Hey friends, I should have posted this project last month itself but there was some problem with the circuit. [link], author of this project did an exellent job. I have been watching him learning on this website. He came as a total noob but now he is well versed with 8051 and PIC microcontroller. earlier

Rotary dialer PIC interface using PIC16F877

Rotary dialer PIC interface I have found myself with an abundance of rotary phones. In fact, they’re everywhere I look. In hopes that I may someday see less of them, I’ve begun taking them apart and re-using the parts for other purposes. For some reason I got it into my brain that interfacing the rotary

LED Sensors

Things are moving along … With my new understanding of I2C master/slave communications, I’ve started work on larger arrays and finding the best way to manage the array and communicate the data to the host PC. Above is the latest iteration of the project… and here is a lengthy description of what you’re seeing: Along
